I’m trying to upgrade a huge bbpress db which until recently we’ve had running on v.0.9. I’ve stepped through the upgrade path of installing v.1 then upgrading to the latest release but when trying to upgrade my database the script always hangs. There doesn’t seem to be a pattern to where it does this (sometimes it processes other times it gets stuck at ‘Starting Conversion’).

I’ve tried running this both on the remote server and setting up the site locally to see if I could get the upgrade done locally before porting to the live server but with no joy.

Is there any other way to upgrade the database except for the bundled converter tool within WordPress? Does anyone have any advice as to how I might be able to achieve this?

Any help much appreciated!

Same question here–I have a standalone 1.02 I’d like to upgrade to v2. Don’t care about WordPress but bbPressv2 is strictly a plugin for WP, right?
